I both are bgp convergence actually, unless the routes are put from BGP -> IGP inside the single provider, which is a little scary. Consider that loctions A and B exist. A is primary, B secondary. B's routes don't exist in ISP's network. A explodes, the network above A has to withdraw the routes, the network above B (it's not the same POP nor POP router right?) has to get new routes from B then send them out. You'll gain SOME possibly, but that probably depends on the bgp/ibgp architecture inside the ISP in question :( > didn't presume that that would likely be something that happened in > seconds.
